I suspect Nintendo may have had a major security breach. My account was accessed numerous times overnight. My password is a unique string and my PC is definitely clean (not that I ever login via it). Lots of similar reports on Reddit/twitter. Unlink PayPal & enable 2FA folks!

After all, we would advise you kindly change your password right now and enable the 2-step verification method which Nintendo advised us to use. This method will secure your Nintendo Switch.

Keep in mind, we have already informed you that hackers are active nowadays and trying to access your PayPal accounts.

Kindly share this with your friends.
